Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.
Anchor babies are not subject to the jurisdiction of the united states. They are born in the united states, so the matter of geography is explicitly preempted from the meaning of jurisdiction in this case as it is named as a separate issue of consideration.
http://webstersdictionary1828.com/Dictionary/Jurisdiction
The limit within which power may be exercised. Jurisdiction, in its most general sense, is the power to make, declare or apply the law; when confined to the judiciary department, it is what we denominate the judicial power, the right of administering justice through the laws, by the means which the laws have provided for that purpose. jurisdiction is limited to place or territory, to persons, or to particular subjects.
The fourth definition of Websters 1828
jurisdiction is limited to place or territory, to persons, or to particular subjects.
Note... To persons is what is applied here. This person is not a citizen and is subject to another country given the parent's citizenship. The premise as a whole must be true at once and not one part then the other. They are born n the United States, BUT they are not subject to the jurisdiction. They do not meet citizenship requirements.

Websters 1913 kept the same meaning of the word so we can conclude that at the time of writing this was the meaning of the word and this is how it should be interpreted.

Note Stating "All persons BORN or Naturalized in the United States" was necessary to explicitly state that Geography in part is necessary. "Jurisdiction" is used to state that it is not the whole thereof what is necessary.
The libs interpret what is in their favor, not in the law or it's original intent. Like Sheila Jackson Lee trying to state that Diamond and Silk Lied on national television on the 11th of April that Facebook had not been in contact with them because facebook did contact them on the 12th of April. This is just what they do and they act like they are right and they all hold the line and the Jewish media talks and acts like they are right and they just keep doing what they do. It goes this way for RINOs and all other crooks too. It doesn't mean you have to join them.
